Big Slick Does the Trick for Molino

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Action folded to the hijack player who raised all in for a little over 30,000 and Marino Molino isolated from the button.

Opponent: {a-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
Marino Molino: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}

Molino had his opponent dominated and the {5-Spades}{8-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} runout didn't change a thing as he eliminated his opponent from the tournament.

Safia Umerova raised to 12,000 from the big blind. Liebert mulled it over for quite a while before electing to fold her hand and send the chips to Umerova.

Hawkins Building a Stack

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Maurice Hawkins
Maurice Hawkins

Maurice Hawkins was seen collecting the scraps of a small stacked player's remaining chips as his {k-}{j-} was showing as the winner vs the {q-}{9-} of the fallen opponent.

The board read {k-}{9-}{5-}{6-}{j-} and Hawkins gathered more as he sits among the largest stacks in the tournament.
